Local Theatre Goers Are Looking Forward To the Fall Production of Hillel Players
Theatre goers of Columbus to whom "the play's the thing" .are looking for¬ ward with much interest to the fall pro¬ duction of the Hillel Players at Uni¬ versity ,'CliapeI on the evening of . No¬ vember 22nd. Tin's fall, instead of pre¬ senting their usual bill of three .short plays, the Players will offer a program made up : of "Great Moments from Great Plays.'* Iii every case the "mo¬ ment" will be snlficient, along with the program, note, to. give: the-audience a perfectly satisfactory resume of the en¬ tire drama. ,
The three plalys selected are totally different in character and ghogld. afford a varfed evening's entertainment. Tlie balcony scene from "Cyraiio de Ber- gerac" represents the peak of modern French romantic drama. It is believed by many to be the most exquisite of Ros¬ tand's plays; recently when the Students of, a literature class at Yale were asked to'select the world's greatesit pIay,."Cy-; rano de Bergerac" was chosen. The story'of a hero, representing that rare . combination, a poet and a man- of- ac¬ tion, "Cyrano'', was first pUyed in. this country by the incomparable Coguelin, for whom the role was conceived, with Sa.rah Bernhardt as the hci-oine, Rox¬ ane. Later Mansfield played the sol- dier-rpoet, a role in which Hampden achieved the greatest success of his career a few ycars^ago.
The balcony scene, which will be coached by Mr. J. H. .Wilson, former director of dramatics at Syracuse Uni¬ versity and- now an English instructor at Ohio State, presents the unusual situa- ,tion pf a man wooing a woma» he him¬ self loves in a rival's, name. Cbriceated by the darkness, Cyrano stands beneath Roxane's window, pleading in Christian's
name for. the love he knows .will never he his own. There is humor here and wit and poetry —; and a touch of .pathos, when Cyrano stands aside, "a beggar at' t|ie feast," and allows Cliristian to mount the balcony for Roxane's kiss. ¦ ¦¦ As realistic : as this love drama is poetic, "The; Melting Pot'' tells a vastly different love story. The third act of Zaiigwill's best known play will be given, in which David, the Jewish boy jmnji- grant, learns that Vera, ivhom he has coine to love, is the. daughter of the Russian haron, commanded' of. the troops responsible for the. massacre in which his parents died. In this act occurs the famous "pogrom speech" in which David lives again the horrors,' which he feels must always separate liim from Vera. President Theodore Roosevelt,, sitting in his box at the American premier, is said to have cried out:'' "A.great play, Mr. 2aiig\yi]l," and, although modern so¬ ciologists are less enthusiastic over the "Melting Pot" . ideal which Zangwill coiiied, this play ahd.' this act in., par¬ ticular, will always be couqted as one of th(^ most vivid and ^dramatic bits, from this, vivid and yolumiiious writer. "The Melting Pot" will be coached by Harry Tucker, the star of last year's "Beggar'on.Horseback'' and president of the Hillel Players,,
In Vivid contrast comes "The Magis¬ trate." one. of the cleverest farces ever written by Pinero, until recently con¬ sidered England's Pleading playwright. The . Magistrate's flustered ¦ wife has c6me''to a public restaurant (a shame¬ less proceeding in mid-Victorian days) to bejf., an old friend of her husband's to help her "keep a very ludicrous se¬ cret. Of course, her husband appears just at the wrong time;'while matters are compUcated by the appearance of her sister's jealous fiance. -The place is raided for keeping bpen hours and the unhappy ladies and their flustered escorts are dragged off by the police to appear the next day — ih her husband's court. Mr. Ray Lee Jackson, fprmet: Stroller's coach, and member bf the Players,. will direct this farce, and is also in charge of the entire production.
Patron tickets for the. season, (three plays) may be secured for $5 from i^iss. Ibla Zcckhauser (Walnut ,1628) or any of the ticket committee; these will be good for two re.>!crved. seats at each performance. ' StiKJcnt season tickets will sell for $1.00 and there will be ad¬ mission tickets sold at the door. for fifty cents.

Jewish Infants Home to Hold Open House Tomorrow
The Jewish Infants Jlnme of Ohio ex¬ tends an invitation to. all its friends to lie prcyent at a reception and tea at the Home. 571 E. Rich Street, Sunday aft¬ ernoon, November 37th, from 3:30 to I :;10, at which time the Home will be open for inspection.
The Home has many children in its cart', ranging in ag? from four months to six years, and come from various cit¬ ies, in Ohio. ' .
Mr. Joseph Schonthal is President of' the State Board of' Trustees.
-address (levotcd mainly to reminiscences of the lime when the Balfour Deciara- lioii was, issue,d, put forward- the political dciiiands f)f the Zionist Executive at pres¬ ent. ¦ Dr Weizmanii, ¦ aS .well as. Co); Josiah Wed.i^wood and Sir Herbert Sam- : ticl, :ni-ged the Palestine : administration to. lend more energetic BUpport to the . Jewish effort in Palestine. ¦
The Marquis of I^cadiiig in proposing, a toast to the Mandatory Power stated that the meaning of the toast was that His Majesty's Government and Lord RaUour will .forever be associated with ! the Declaration. In: a warm ,personal : tribute to Lord Balfour, the Marquis stated tlijit Balfour enjoys the affection and esteem of, all classes. . ./
. The British Government will carry out the Balfour "Declaration and the proyi^ .sions of the Mandate. England, the Mar¬ tinis stated, holds and protects. Palestine. and, there could not have been a better' choice for the mandatory pow^.er for Pal¬ estine than .the En^lisli Govemmfint. Lord Reading praised highly the, work of Sir Herbert- Sariiuel, former High Coniniissiorier, and that of Lord Plumer, the present High Commissioner. Both , of itlieni have carried out England's ' proniise to the Jewish people,' he said. ^
Major Ormsby Gore, Understate Sec¬ retary for the Colonies, replying to Lord . Reading's toast,, stated thaj: no matter what party is' in power the government is responsible to parliament and the League of Nations for its work in Pal¬ estine. He laid emphasis on the fact that .England has continued in Palestinr her. traditional policy of governing tlu country not from London but through a High Commissiontr in the country, to whoiii the responsibility for the admin¬ istration, is intrusted. All that has been achieved,lip to now in Palestine is due" to the administrative abilhies of Sir Her¬ bert Samuel and Lord Balfour, he stated.
The Understate Secretary added that tie shared with the Zionists all their hopes and enthusiasm for Palestine and its re,- construction. It is necessary, however, to face the practical difliculties. Eng¬ land, he. stated, considers and acts upon all practiciU-problems when they arise. ' The first principle of good government is to establish internal peace in the coun¬ try, to balance the budget, to protect all enterprises. When this is achieved, eco-, noniic aild social progress is made pos¬ sible. The Britisii government co-oper¬ ates and will .contribute to cooperate .with and facilitate the work of (he Jew¬ isli Agency in Palestine. The material prosperity of the country is continuing to grow.
The present difliculties and faillires which have been observed bf late, are merely temporary and will soon disap-. pear. Major Ormsby Gore continued. These failures* are certainly no cause for losing courage. "We are making steady and continuous progress in Pal-i estiue," he exclaimed.
It is the duty of the British feoverii- ment to enable the Jewish people to grow and develop in a bright atn\o'sphere which would take roots in the soil of the land, to grow Nvitho&t fear, to be protected (Contmued flu page i).

-address (levotcd mainly to reminiscences of the lime when the Balfour Deciara- lioii was, issue,d, put forward- the political dciiiands f)f the Zionist Executive at pres¬ ent. ¦ Dr Weizmanii, ¦ aS .well as. Co); Josiah Wed.i^wood and Sir Herbert Sam- : ticl, :ni-ged the Palestine : administration to. lend more energetic BUpport to the . Jewish effort in Palestine. ¦
The Marquis of I^cadiiig in proposing, a toast to the Mandatory Power stated that the meaning of the toast was that His Majesty's Government and Lord RaUour will .forever be associated with ! the Declaration. In: a warm ,personal : tribute to Lord Balfour, the Marquis stated tlijit Balfour enjoys the affection and esteem of, all classes. . ./
. The British Government will carry out the Balfour "Declaration and the proyi^ .sions of the Mandate. England, the Mar¬ tinis stated, holds and protects. Palestine. and, there could not have been a better' choice for the mandatory pow^.er for Pal¬ estine than .the En^lisli Govemmfint. Lord Reading praised highly the, work of Sir Herbert- Sariiuel, former High Coniniissiorier, and that of Lord Plumer, the present High Commissioner. Both , of itlieni have carried out England's ' proniise to the Jewish people,' he said. ^
Major Ormsby Gore, Understate Sec¬ retary for the Colonies, replying to Lord . Reading's toast,, stated thaj: no matter what party is' in power the government is responsible to parliament and the League of Nations for its work in Pal¬ estine. He laid emphasis on the fact that .England has continued in Palestinr her. traditional policy of governing tlu country not from London but through a High Commissiontr in the country, to whoiii the responsibility for the admin¬ istration, is intrusted. All that has been achieved,lip to now in Palestine is due" to the administrative abilhies of Sir Her¬ bert Samuel and Lord Balfour, he stated.
The Understate Secretary added that tie shared with the Zionists all their hopes and enthusiasm for Palestine and its re,- construction. It is necessary, however, to face the practical difliculties. Eng¬ land, he. stated, considers and acts upon all practiciU-problems when they arise. ' The first principle of good government is to establish internal peace in the coun¬ try, to balance the budget, to protect all enterprises. When this is achieved, eco-, noniic aild social progress is made pos¬ sible. The Britisii government co-oper¬ ates and will .contribute to cooperate .with and facilitate the work of (he Jew¬ isli Agency in Palestine. The material prosperity of the country is continuing to grow.
The present difliculties and faillires which have been observed bf late, are merely temporary and will soon disap-. pear. Major Ormsby Gore continued. These failures* are certainly no cause for losing courage. "We are making steady and continuous progress in Pal-i estiue," he exclaimed.
It is the duty of the British feoverii- ment to enable the Jewish people to grow and develop in a bright atn\o'sphere which would take roots in the soil of the land, to grow Nvitho&t fear, to be protected (Contmued flu page i).
